I bought this on sale so the price was right. I bought this just before the heat wave hit so I have worn it just once so far. The quality is great, as is the fit except the armholes are a bit large. Should work well over lightweight and medium weight tops and sweaters. I have been looking for a white vest that was not quilted for a long time. Think I will wear it a lot and probably almost year round. It is a bit casual for my needs but the pleated collar adds a nice touch.

I bought the vest in orchid. I do not love the color but I bought it because I have this vest in black and it is so great that I needed another. The color is very pretty and bright however; it is the opposite of my color preference but the only other option was white which I didn't want. So aside from wishing for a more subtle color, let me say how great these vests are. I bought my black vest in an outlet on the sale rack. I am glad that it was the only vest there because it happened to be a medium, size tall and I do not think I would have tried a tall on. The tall skims my butt and ends at just the right point for a flattering, feminine look. I cinch the waist for a body hugging, sleek look. The vest has pockets inside which are great for small wallet and perhaps a phone. The pocket and collar details are a special treat. There are low volume, not too puffy ruffles. They are not as noticiable on my back vest where you just see a pretty extra curvy detail. On the orchid vest the detail is much more visible. The ruffles lend the vest a more custom, less utilitarian look. I have worn my black vest over all sorts of shirts as well as under a jacket. I have worn my orchid vest on runs because the vest has a 50 spf. I will be wearing it while kayaking also because the collar will keep the strong sun off my neck and the arm holes will allow free movement. The piping inside is orange! It is such a pretty contrast to the orchid color. I am very happy with these vests.

Great 3-season vest (spring thru fall in Northern Ontario). Stylish - multi use - All there is to say is "more colours please!". If you're waffling between sizes, buy the larger. As a long time EB customer, I usually buy petite med, but have found lately EB sizing is more fitted (smaller) and I go for petite large in shirts and outerwear. But then I am older and don't like the tight look.
